Private jet chef — Arjun Haddad for Douala

DLA departures are covered by Hiro Haddad, who cooks to order and answers directly. Short sectors demand formats that land fast—cold plates that need no galley time, light mains that reheat in minutes, portion control that fits the cabin. Hiro briefs crews on oven limits per aircraft type and adjusts lead times when the departure list tightens. The same person who takes your order packs it, labels it, and confirms handover airside.

Jet catering Douala — kitchen to tarmac

Seasonal produce shapes your private jet catering at DLA. The kitchen preparing your order adapts menus as the market shifts—mango, plantain, and seafood follow harvest cycles, and peak weeks tighten lead times on certain items. Each plate is timed against your departure slot, sealed after assembly, and moved under cold-chain control. Dedicated cold rooms hold proteins and prepared components separately. Pâtisserie and garde-manger posts work in parallel when you book multi-course service. Allergen data appears on every label. Same-day capacity is standard for business aviation catering at Douala International Airport, but advance notice during high-traffic periods helps the team secure your first-choice ingredients and lock your ramp delivery window.

Airside delivery

Airside delivery at Douala International

Four departures in a morning peak: VIP flight catering and charter flight catering delivered on the same airside run, timed to your slot. Badged drivers in temperature-controlled vehicles transfer your order to the FBO you nominate or ramp-side at the aircraft door. For large cabins, high loader capability is confirmed at the time of order, serving galley doors at height. Short sectors leave no time for galley work—service lands in front of the passenger fast, light formats that need no oven, cold plates that hold across the leg.
